I am going to be downvoted to death, but it is clear from last year events that Sam Altman is truly that kind of "Blade Runner/Robocop(1)"-like antagonist character that has a narcissistic drive to destroy the world just so he can show everybody he is saving it.

It seems unfair to attack someone so personally without providing neutrally presented evidence to support it

I feel theres plenty of evidence... he's a super rich public figure known to lie to get traction on his projects. He doesn't need your protection

It's not about me protecting some billionaire that doesn't give a shit about me. It's about protecting reasonable discussion and trying to keep discussion in reality instead of it just being an echo chamber of "ai man bad". If I just wanted to see outrage and shitting on someone without substance I'd go read reddit and twitter.

Plenty of evidence... of which still none is being presented neutrally.

There is a bunch of evidence in the article we're commenting on. Good faith assumption that people have all read the article before commenting is (supposedly) a premise of HN's culture. In practice, many people who comment are responding solely to a comment or to the title presented.

I read the article, didn't see any evidence of the above claims.

Still waiting for such evidence...

It won't be clear till he turns the AIs against us ;) For now he's more Anakin Skywalker bit do not underestimate the power of the dark side.

what evidence concretely?
